Weezy Comes Up Just Short of A Millie



The Carter IV hit shelves last week and even with the album being leaked prior to it's release date, Wayne still managed to sell nearly a million copies in his first weeks sales. The final total was more like 964,000 copies sold. That is an extremely impressive debut especially since album sales have been dramatically altered with the new digital downloads. It was just a few weeks ago that Eminem broke the download record with the first million in sales. Here we are now and Wayne is doing those kinds of numbers in the first week. Is he really that good or are more people finally buying online as opposed to physical CD's? In Weezy's defense, the Carter III did 1.01 mil in the first week.
